After the Los Angeles Rams lost to the Patriots in Super Bowl LIII, Aaron Donald took three days off. Then, he was back in the gym working to get even better in advance of the 2019 season.
This was nothing new for Donald, who hardly ever takes any time off after the season ends. He certainly hasn’t this year after the Rams missed the playoffs and he came up short in the Defensive Player of the Year race after winning it the last two seasons.
Donald has been hitting the gym hard and looks as ripped as ever. He and James Conner were in L.A. recently working out at the Mamba Sports Academy, which was started by the late Kobe Bryant. Conner looks to be in excellent shape, but Donald is on another level.
It’s hard to fathom how a 285-pound defensive tackle can have the physique and ab definition that Donald does, but it’s a testament to how hard he works when no one is watching. Whether he’s training back home in Pittsburgh or in Los Angeles, Donald is rarely resting on his laurels.
Fans on Twitter are dumbfounded by Donald’s chiseled body, comparing him to the Hulk and claiming he isn’t human.

I think we should appreciate that Aaron Donald is 290 with a full set of abs. That’s impressive 😂 https://t.co/iJfLvSG5X2

Whatever Aaron Donald’s combine marks were back then… I’m sure he’s a level faster, quicker, and stronger than even then. Not many players can say that… Goodnight pic.twitter.com/1U5Wfd5OSh
